do you see a problem with this script? im never online to witness it, but here's what happens: every sunday thier should be 3 new winners announced, that all works fine. but when i log online the next morning, so monday.... i see thiers 3 new intirely different winners showing on the floating text so the lottery script must have took place again. this has happened for several weeks now string Day="Sunday"; string WebPage="http://website.net/lottery.php"; string HV_LastDate; key HV_Pay; string winner1 = "Tessymarie Resident"; string winner2 = "FireTemp Resident"; string winner3 = "Rosa Kenyon"; string GetDay() { list weekdays = ["Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday"]; integer hours = llGetUnixTime()/3600; integer days = (hours + -7)/24; integer day_of_week = days%7; return llList2String(weekdays, day_of_week); } default { state_entry() { llSetText("PRIZE WINNERS:\n \n1st: " + (string)winner1 +"\n2nd: " + (string)winner2+ "\n3rd: " + (string)winner3,<1.0, 0.6, 0.2>,1.0); llSetTimerEvent(3600); // check the day of the week every hour llRequestPermissions(llGetOwner(),PERMISSION_DEBIT); } touch_start(integer num_detected) { llPlaySound("Drums",1.0); llSay(0,"\n \n" + (string)winner1 + " won a free week\n" + (string)winner2 + " won L$10\n" + (string)winner3 + " won a gift-card"); llGiveInventory(llDetectedKey(0),llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_NOTECARD, 0)); return; } timer() { if(GetDay()==Day&llGetDate()!=HV_LastDate) { llHTTPRequest(WebPage,[],""); llSetTimerEvent(60); } } http_response(key request_id,integer status,list metadata,string body) { if(body!="false") { list A=llParseString2List(body,["|"],["|"]); llSetText("PRIZE WINNERS:\n \n1st: "+llList2String(A,0)+"\n2nd: "+llList2String(A,1)+ "\n3rd: "+llList2String(A,2),<1.0, 0.6, 0.2>,1.0); llPlaySound("Drums",1.0); llSay(0,"ANNOUNCING THE RESULTS\n \n" + llList2String(A,0)+" won an extra week\n" + llList2String(A,1)+" won the 10 lindens\n" + llList2String(A,2)+" won a giftcard"); llInstantMessage(llList2String(A,3),"Congratulations, you just won 1 free week of rent."); llTransferLindenDollars(llList2String(A,4),10); llInstantMessage(llList2String(A,4),"Congratulations, you just won 10 lindens."); llGiveInventory(llList2String(A,5),llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_OBJECT, 0)); llInstantMessage(llList2String(A,5),"Congratulations, you just won a giftcard"); llOwnerSay(llList2String(A,0)+" won extra week"); llOwnerSay(llList2String(A,1)+" won 10 lindens"); llOwnerSay(llList2String(A,2)+" won a giftcard"); winner1 = llList2String(A,0); winner2 = llList2String(A,1); winner3 = llList2String(A,2); HV_LastDate=llGetDate(); llSetTimerEvent(3600); } else { llSetText("Database Failure",<1,1,1>,1); } } }

WE ARE GIVING AWAY GIFT-CARDS, with them you can stay for 1 WEEK at highrise homes for Absolutly FREE !!!!! to recieve a card just send a inworld message to Hills90210 Beverly http://slurl.com/secondlife/Monster/227/143/21/ thiers over 34 house designs and you get them all because they like a multi-scene system if you also happen to be a clubowner / host - we`ll give you a bunch of cards so you can help distribute them

yea luckily i do record the uuids already, i just didnt want to record the house position on the webserver for multiple reasons, sim crash, server offline etc.. heres all the infomation thats returned, list bodyCSV = llCSV2List(body); key uuid = llList2Key(bodyCSV, 0); string name = llList2String(bodyCSV, 1); key partneruuid = llList2Key(bodyCSV, 2); string partner = llList2String(bodyCSV, 3); string expiration = llList2String(bodyCSV, 4); integer unixExpiration = llList2Integer(bodyCSV, 5); string design = llList2String(bodyCSV, 6); your code example is very exciting to me, returning an avatars position and teleporting straight to them is alot simpler im concerned about problems that may occur if i do it this way tho 1) partner may be in the sim but not neccaserily in thier apartment ( i could check if llovermyland perhaps but still no gaurantee that they in thier house) 2) what if tenant+partner was both in the lobby waiting to use the teleporter, they wud be stuck in an endless loop thier hmm maybe i could just warn the person trying to teleport that thier partner is in the sim, would they like to goto them its a possibility i suppose, then if it fails they can say no next time and ofcourse if they are both in the lobby at the time, first person will have to ensure he presses No. so they get sent to the house and not to his partner probally standing beside him

Hi, my project is rather confusing so ill tell you a little about what im trying to accomplish. i have a 'teleporter rental system' which purposly goes to random x,y,z positions everytime its used, im trying to make it so tenants+partners get sent to the same coordinates at the moment when a persons sits it checks the webserver in order to findout if they a tenant or not, then a bunch of infomation is returned included in the message body is wether that person has a partner or not, if they dont it`ll say "NONE" string partner = llList2String(bodyCSV, 3); - OK SO HERES THE PART I NEED HELP WITH [STEP 1] when a tenant sits on the teleporter, if they have a partner... check if thier name is in the list [STEP 2] if thier partner name is in the list, retreive thier coordinates so i can warp straight to it [STEP 3] if the person trying to teleport has a partner but thier name isnt in the list then record the sitting guys llGetPos() in the list when he reaches the destination ------- then hopefully everything should work out. can sombody provide me with code examples to achieve my goal, im terrible with lists they always confuse me. i tried to make a subscription kiosk in the past, didnt goto well ill try to learn from visitor greeter scripts or groupjoin signs they usualy involve lists saving the coords on the webserver might be easier solution but too many problems i dont want to think about. only thing i have to worry about this way is the list becoming to large and crashing the script

thanks guys one last question how do i make it say 10% instead of 10.00 apart from changing it from a float or typing it into the message, i dont realy understand the getsubstring line if (weeks >= PAY_AT_LEAST) { integer cashback = (integer)((amount*DISCOUNT)/100); string strDiscount=llGetSubString((string)DISCOUNT,0,llSubStringIndex((string)DISCOUNT,".")+2); msg = "Paying for " + (string)PAY_AT_LEAST + " weeks or more at once means a discount of " +(string)strDiscount+ "%; refunding L$" + (string)cashback + "."; llSay(0,msg); llGiveMoney(id, cashback); } Paying for 4 weeks or more at once means a discount of 10.00%; refunding L$8.

Hi, anybody help? i cant figure out how to offer a 10% discount if a tenant rents 4 weeks in advance i understand if i charge 20L pw and i recieved 80L. if amount / rent_rate = 4 means they eligible for discount but that formula dont work if they rent several months in advance. anyway if a person pays a month in advance, or several months i want to return 10% of the amount they paid -- hippotech got this in thier config DISCOUNT PAY AT LEAST: 4 < handles any amount of weeks DISCOUNT PERCENTAGE: 5% i want my system to work the same way keep in mind people have to pay the correct amount because they already refunded if wrong money(key id, integer amount) { integer overPay = amount % RENT_RATE; if (paidLock) { llInstantMessage(id, "rental box is in use, try again in a minute or two"); llGiveMoney(id, overPay); return; } integer weeks = amount / RENT_RATE; string msg = REFUND_MSG + (string)overPay; if (overPay && REFUND) { if (weeks) msg = "You have overpaid." + msg; else msg = "The minimum rent is L$" + (string)RENT_RATE + msg; llGiveMoney(id, overPay); llInstantMessage(id, msg); if (!weeks) return; } resetTimer(); paidName = llKey2Name(id); paidLock = TRUE; updateReqId = llHTTPRequest(UPDATE_URL + "?uuid=" + (string)id + "&name=" + llEscapeURL(llKey2Name(id)) + "&weeks=" + (string)weeks, [], ""); }

i beleive i could do something like this float WEB_TIMEOUT = 30.0; then initiate a timer when i do a llHTTPRequest llSetTimerEvent(WEB_TIMEOUT); then in the http_responce if infomation is recieved end the timer otherwise timer() { llSay(0,"trouble communicating with webserver...\nplease try using the gift-card again later or contact the owner " + llKey2Name(llGetCreator())); return; } i havent tried it yet tho and im open to any other ideas cuz i would prefer the checking if status == 200 way AH I THINK I GOT IT NOW, 200 IS GOOD != 200 IS A BAD THING

thanks for the responce, your answers opened up my eyes especially #3 anyway i pretty much done everything i wanted to do now. yes i do use an external database.. i cant keep track of whos who serverside because i barely know lsl let alone php but i managed to make this giftcard system by editing my rentbox, the giftcard itself pratically functions the sameway the rentbox does so its quite dangerous if abused. hopefully in future i can keep track of sales in sl kinda like hippotech payment history menu does - just out of interest not a security measure anyway back on track i have a few questions, problems and concerns: 1) is thier anyway to use lldie if im wearing the giftcard? 2) i checked if status == 200 but then it never works, it will always say llSay(0,"trouble communicating with webserver...\nplease try using the gift-card again later or contact the owner " + llKey2Name(llGetCreator())); return; if i remove that line then it works a treat i dont know what the problem is so i cant fix it 3) im concerned about the USED variable..... i just want to make sure people cant reset my script to use the giftcard again because its very dangerous to my buissness if it wont lldie(); 4) always wondered how i post code on forums so it appears formatted like lsl UPDATED CODE: integer TIME_GIFT = 1; // number of weeks to give awayinteger RENT_RATE = 20; // price you usually charge for a single weekstring USED;string DELETESELF = "TRUE";string NOTE = "INFO";string UPDATE_URL = "http://mywebhost.com";string OLD_RENT_MSG = "[LEASE EXTENDED] ";string NEW_RENT_MSG = "[LEASE STARTED]";string RENT_PAID_MSG = " Time left: ";string OWNER_OLD_RENT_MSG = " has renewed thier rental.

Hello, can anybody help finish this script...... its a gift card system for my rentbox so works a little differently than what you may find in a shop its just missing 4 features - help with any of them atall will be appreciated 1) make sure this giftcard can only be used once, then delete itself. 2) how to use the card? well im wearing it already so maybe touch for a menu or chat-command to confirm? 3) how do i check if im in a script enabled area? if people use the giftcard in a no scriptzone it`ll be used and useless 4) check for webserver responce to ensure its online? otherwise giftcard might get used and become useless again string USED = FALSE; integer TIME_GIFT = 1; // number of weeks to give away integer RENT_RATE = 50; // price you usually charge for a single week string NOTE = "INFO"; string UPDATE_URL = "http://mywebhost.com"; string OLD_RENT_MSG = "[LEASE EXTENDED] "; string NEW_RENT_MSG = "[LEASE STARTED]"; string RENT_PAID_MSG = " Time left: "; string OWNER_OLD_RENT_MSG = " has renewed thier rental.

okie after comparing all the codes given to me, i done it this way if (weeks) return time + ",SUPERB"; else if (days >= 4) return time + ",OK"; else return time + ",EXPIRING"; which has seemed to work i put RETURN before each one.... ive no idea why thats any different but if it works it works OMG im back to the origional problem again Your rent expires in 6 days 23 hours 53 mins,SUPERB <<<< maybe i can parse the string ???? never had to in the past using the first code "\nYour rent expires in " + ts2Days(unixExpiration));

i got it working, removing the = signs helped... i dont understand it but im glad i tried it time + ", OK" ah damnit, everytime i think i fixed something, another issue occurs if i leave the += signs in, then timeleft aint displayed on my dialogs if i do it myway just the + signs, then timeleft is displayed but the status which is (OK/EXPIRING/SUPERB) aint displayed so frustrating

great tyvm ah another problem occured, i almost overlooked.... the old code worked string ts2Days(integer unixExpiration) { integer seconds = unixExpiration - llGetUnixTime(); integer weeks = seconds / 604800; integer days = (seconds % 604800) / 86400; integer hours = (seconds % 86400) / 3600; integer mins = (seconds % 3600) / 60; string time = ""; if (weeks) { time += (string)weeks + " week"; if (~-weeks) time += "s"; time += " "; } if (days) { time += (string)days + " day"; if (~-days) time += "s"; time += " "; } if (hours) { time += (string)hours + " hour"; if (~-hours) time += "s"; time += " "; } if (mins) { time += (string)mins + " min"; if (~-mins) time += "s"; } /* if (days < 4) return time + ",EXPIRING"; else if (days > 6) return time + ",SUPER"; else return time + ",OK"; */ return time; } rental time is returned fine for example: Your rent expires in 6 days 23 hours 50 mins but when i use your code i get Your rent expires in 6 days 23 hours 53 mins,OK notice the OK ^ in the msg time += ", OK"; i tried removing the space between the , and OK but that didnt do the job i have no idea what the problem is... then again i didnt earlier either

thank you, that done the trick it caused a new problem now tho which i dunno how to solve, with the last part of the code if (days < 4) return time + ",EXPIRING"; else if (days > 6) return time + ",SUPERB"; else return time + ",OK"; it always says "OK" even if i rent far in advance.

please help me with time convertor problem, string ts2Days(integer unixExpiration) { integer seconds = unixExpiration - llGetUnixTime(); integer weeks = seconds / 604800; integer days = seconds / 86400; integer hours = (seconds % 86400) / 3600; integer mins = (seconds % 3600) / 60; string time = ""; if (weeks) { time += (string)weeks + " week"; if (~-weeks) time += "s"; time += " "; } if (days) { time += (string)days + " day"; if (~-days) time += "s"; time += " "; } if (hours) { time += (string)hours + " hour"; if (~-hours) time += "s"; time += " "; } if (mins) { time += (string)mins + " min"; if (~-mins) time += "s"; } if (days < 4) return time + ",EXPIRING"; else if (days > 6) return time + ",SUPERB"; else return time + ",OK"; } when i rent or extend my lease to be told how much time i have left, it`ll say something like this [LEASE EXTENDED] Time left: 2 weeks 16 days 21 hours 54 mins thats the issue ^ i dont realy have 2 weeks and 16 days left, - thiers just 2 weeks IN 16 days with TWO days left over. so instead of saying what it does, it should say Time left: 2 weeks 2 days 21 hours 54 mins ive looked at several open source scripts but they dont do weeks http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Rental_Cube http://patrioticnigras.org/wiki/index.php?title=Rental_Script

thanks for all your advice, i found a simple solution which seems to work for me if ((integer)expiration == (integer)NULL_KEY) // then they aint a tenant because its blank and im glad you mentioned casting a string only equals the year, i thought as much in my earlier posts i will try to convert my project to use llGetUnixTime() if im upto it but it works great for now

i tried changing if ((integer)expiration != (integer)llGetTimestamp()) to != llGetUnixTime but that didnt work atall so expiration is also the problem hmmm would i be right in thinking the problem is on my webserver with the way the php stores the expiry date in the database? i havent a clue about any of this so if thats the case ill go hire a php guy

Hi, im not realy a scriptor.. i had a custom rentbox made in the past and ive been trying to improve it over the years, so i know a little anyway i just found a huge bug which has been annoying me for a longtime, its funny because i always felt the problem got worse everytime christmas approached... yes i been living with it for that long long story short my rentbox slash teleport system checks if the avatar ISNT a tenant by using the code below if ((integer)expiration != (integer)llGetTimestamp()) { llSay(0,"\n" + (string)expiration + "\n" + llGetTimestamp()); // i added this to see whats going on llUnSit(gAvatarID); llSay(0,"\n \nYOU ARE NOT A TENANT, " + llKey2Name(gAvatarID) + HERE ARE MY FINDINGS: when my system works it says: 2013-10-05 23:41:58 // expiration 2013-05-18T23:42:41.464428Z // llgettimestamp when my system messes up it says: 2014-01-18 23:41:58 // expiration 2013-05-18T23:44:05.375520Z // llgettimestamp thats the problem, even tho i am a tenant.. when i rent too far in advance it`ll claim im not a tenant and unsit me. i dont realy understand how it ever worked atall to be honest i mean the 2 variables never match anyway, only the first 4 digits >? anyway have you noticed the important detail which has changed !? I BELEIVE ITS BECAUSE THE YEAR DOESNT MATCH (2014) what can i do to fix my problem i presume its something simple like changing (integer)llGetTimestamp()) to some thing else please help me i maybe wrong altogether but the year changing is the only time my system seems to screw up some more detailed results when im not a tenant, date stays the same except for last digits it unsits me as it should do so works fine 2013-05-19T00:37:35.403233Z when im a tenant with 29 weeks rent payed it still works fine 2013-12-15 00:40:52 2013-05-19T00:41:08.498774Z when im a tenant with 31 weeks payed it still works fine 2013-12-29 00:43:05 2013-05-19T00:43:34.494680Z But when im a tenant with 32 weeks payed it says im not a tenant & unsits me... the expiry year would be 2014 2014-01-05 00:40:52 2013-05-19T00:42:20.940989Z

integer getRefund(integer expiration) { integer test = (((expiration - llGetUnixTime()) / 86400) * RENT_RATE / 7); return llRound(test*0.8); } i beleive i got it working, thanks 86400 seconds in a day, lets pretend i have 2 weeks left on my rental so: 14 days * the rental price which is 20 lindens = 280 280 / 7 = 40 which is correct if i rented a shop for 20L pw for 2 weeks it would come to L$40 so how the hell did we get from thier to -20% fee just using llround i wish i could understand it, the only thing different is the llround line and that only multiplys the test variable which was always present in my code to begin with o well if it works it works im happy

i done this integer getRefund(integer expiration) { expiration -= (llGetUnixTime() / 86400) * ( RENT_RATE / 7); llSay(0,(string)expiration); //return llRound(expiration*0.8); return expiration; } expiration is 1372158634 so * 0.8 would be 1097726907.2 i think this is whats crashing it

return llRound(expiration*0.8); this line seems to cause me problems, script error "llDialog: button labels must be 24 or fewer characters long" i know i didnt provide any code involving dialogs but it only breaks when i use the GETREFUND function the word 'refund' comes up in the project alot but this is the only thing i see which involves the dialog mainMenu(uuid, msg + DLG_MSGd + partner + DLG_MSGe, unixExpiration, [iNFO_BTN, PARTNER_BTN, DESIGN_BTN, MOVE_BTN + "\t\t," + (string)getRefund(unixExpiration)]);

integer getRefund(integer expiration) { return (((expiration - llGetUnixTime()) / 86400) * RENT_RATE / 7); } this little code determines / returns... how much to refund a person based on thier rental time left, but i also want to deduct a 20% fee can sombody help
